Thank you for posting this. Let's witness what science and engineering is capable of achieve today.

It is just amazing to think that a robot is roaming around in Mars, and a second one might be joining today.

My personal preference is the JPL raw feed (here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kPrbJ63qUc4) but I think that more people watching space here is better! Great link!

They have a live telemetry animation web app, but I am currently getting a 503 from cloudfront.

Clicking on the solar system icon at the top of this page provides a JavaScript version of NASA's Eyes solar system mapping application. You can look up the Perseverance mission as "Mars 2020" right now.

Yeah, it was accessible until they mentioned it in the livestream.

To their credit, I've watched NASA spend decades getting better at Internet services and generally being an online presence. Improvements year-over-year have been noteworthy. But I still have to chuckle a little bit that they triggered a DDOS protect by name-dropping themselves.

Ad Internet Per Aspera, you crazy spacers ;)

Currently watching it using Streamlink [0] to watch in VLC. This is so exciting! Wishing them, and the rover, all the best in the landing!
